But lt's The Latestl It happens in every school every year. Some become preps , some jocks , and some Hnew-wavers . Why do people choose to divide themselves into groups and imitate their idols, or maybe their peers? Because they are following trends, which at one time or another make an appearance in everyone's life. New wave fashions have made a tremendous appearance this year. Fashions resembled those of the British movement, which include leatherjackets, leather pants, and ties made of every- thing, and usually being thin in appear- ance. Besides clothes, hairstyles have also changed. Guys and girls both wear the hair short around the ears and sometimes spiked on top. Another type of clothing that became popular after last summer's hit movie Flashdance were sweatshirts with all kinds of rips and tears in them. Leg warmers also became popular because of this movie. The most common type of fashion was perhaps the preppy look, as many stu- dents chose to clad themselves in prep clothes. These types of clothes included docksiders, oxfords, sweaters, and penny loafers. Many styles come and go throughout the year, and the different types of people here at Meade adhere to the trends that interest them the most. Everybody has the right to do what they want and wear what they want, and it is apparent in the many ways that people dress. P A few people were daring enough to wear the spiked haircut, including Pete Morano. 46 X Trends P Kim Hammond models some of this years fashion, jean jackets and mini-skirts. V The checkerboard design of Vans made them a popular item. if

XX ky ---------Signs of the Times------- ow many times have you been out at a mall or anywhere else that high school students hang out, and seen numerous Meade students? How did you know they were from Meade? Most likely, it was because oftheir school symbols. Sometimes it was their school jackets or it was the buttons depicting loyalty to their school, or some- times it was just because of the brown and gold colors they wore. Almost everywhere students go, they let people know where they are from. Through words, actions, and fashions, otherwise known as school symbols, loyalties are professed to any- one and everyone. Such symbols are seen everywhere throughout our school as well. Students wear brown and gold shirts, sweaters, sweat shirts, socks and hats to represent the group they belong to, whether it be a club, the band or a sports team. Also, many groups have their own sayings or special names. One such example is band, who call themselves the Mighty Meade Mustang Marching Machine. These symbols, the Mustang, the brown and gold colors and many other symbols spread throughout the school not only let others know who we are, but also give students a sense of unity that tells others we are proud of who we are. P This band member shows pride in fashioning a band jacket. P V An avid fan shows that even a handbag can be used to symbolize a sense of pride towards Meade. V V This sweatshirt, a fund raiser by the cheerlead- ers, was an attractive way to show school spirit. 48 f School Symbols ., --lrr ii-- , , FMT ' anunmst , g . ff ,W ,Lrtt 12 s ft W' ' N- 'QW 'fm 4,3 ,V ,E H R24 nf rx N 5 ,...,
